Suspense. Thriller. Young Adult Fiction. HTML:

A feminist Lord of the Flies about three best friends living in quarantine at their island boarding school and the lengths they go to uncover the truth of their confinement when one disappears, this fresh, new debut is a mind-bending novel unlike anything you've read before.

It's been eighteen months since the Raxter School for Girls was put under quarantine, since the Tox hit and pulled Hetty's life out from under her.

It started slow. First the teachers died, one by one. Then it began to infect the students, turning their bodies strange and foreign. Now, cut off from the rest of the world and left to fend for themselves on their island home, the girls don't dare wander outside the school's fence, where the Tox has made the woods wild and dangerous. They wait for the cure they were promised as the Tox seeps into everything.

But when Byatt goes missing, Hetty will do anything to find her, even if it means breaking quarantine and braving the horrors that lie beyond the fence. And when she does, Hetty learns that there's more to their story, to their life at Raxter, than she could have ever thought true.

Reading this book was such a rush. After the first few pages it felt like something came over me and just I couldn’t put this down or stop thinking about it until I finished. It’s not for everyone, but it’s definitely for me. ( )

Lord of the Flies meets Facts of Life meets The Island of Dr. Moreau - that is Wilder Girls. And the thing is I like enough of each piece of those stories for this to be a good story. I like the characters. I don't love them. I'm not insanely invested in them, but that's okay. There are other elements of the story that I don't feel a loss not knowing everyone's origin story. In some ways, I kind of appreciate that. The story moves at a good pace. The descriptive language is on point. It's never too much or too little. I appreciate that she doesn't use a heavy hand with descriptions but I can still become immersed in the setting. The overall storyline is great. To a point. I agree with other reviewers the ending is not an ending. It seems like there is another part of the story waiting to be told. It feels like at least a sequel. But Rory Power just announced her second book to be published and it's not a continuation of this story. So now I'm upset that this doesn't have a follow-up. Of course I was upset when I got to the end and assumed I had just been sucked into a series. So I'm not sure which one I'm more happy about. If this isn't meant to be a series then the ending is lackluster. If it is meant to be a series then you should lead with that. ( )

This was like if The Troop and Maze Runner had a baby, but it was sapphic. ( )

A bit slow near the beginning and end but the middle is really cool. Disappointed there isn't a sequel yet but at least the first is good.
The frenemies to lovers trope was done surprisingly well and the kiss was sooo cute ( )
